Speaking after the game, Yusuf believed the penalty decision for Barnieh’s goal was harsh.
“The penalty was really a big blow to my team because there was a commotion there. The referee was a little bit harsh on that penalty and that got our players arguing,” he said.
“We tried to come back, created some moments and we still fought and so I think is football so we will work hard to see how we can consider two goals in Nigeria.”
Ghana have not played in the CHAN tournament since 2014.
